“My name’s Theo Zander! Now take your people with you and scram!” Theo roared. This was the first time he felt humiliated, and it even happened right in front of Mr. Clarke. Would Mr. Clarke suspect his capabilities because of this? “Theo Zander? What’s that? I don’t know it.” Harold was a short-tempered man. He was the manager of a huge amusement park and had stayed in that high position for so many years now, so it was only natural that his temper was a little shorter. “Stop talking nonsense and quickly apologize to my son, or else, don’t even think about leaving!” Theo Zander? Why does that sound a little familiar? Forget it! Can he be more powerful than I am? I’m the manager here, the king! Theo was fuming with anger. With a reddened face, he pointed at Harold and roared, “Just try to even f*cking move!” Sh*t, this guy really thought he was a small fry! “What are you standing there for? Get them! Or do you all want to get fired?” Harold bellowed at his stall. The workers
Harold’s scalp was feeling prickly. His face was pale. “Brother Tiger, you’re...” Tiger Zander finally noticed him. He looked up in surprise and asked, “Manager Hill, what are you doing here?” What the… Harold felt like he was about to vomit blood. Did Tiger really not see him standing there? This was his amusement park, after all, his turf! However, Harold did not have the time to mind that now. When he recalled Tiger’s respectful attitude as the man addressed that two people earlier, Harold had a bad feeling about it. He forced out a smile and asked, “Brother Tiger, these two people are…” “This is my older brother, Theo Zander, Brother Theo. And this is Mr. Clarke, my brother’s honored guest,” answered Tiger. Tiger Zander was the top dog of Lord North Street, and Millennium Amusement Park was situated in this Lord North Street. Harold had been working here for many years now, so he naturally knew Tiger Zander’s strength and influence. He also knew that Tiger’s backer was the
How was he acquainted with a prominent figure like Theo Zander? “Wait,” Philip suddenly called out. In an instant, the group at the door froze in panic, unsure whether to stay or leave. “Mr. Clarke, do you have any other instructions?” Harold still had a little more guts and could afford to stay composed. “I hope you all will not speak of this incident today with anyone else. I do not wish for my daily life to be disrupted, do you understand?” said Philip. “We understand, we understand.” Harold nodded continuously. Philip then nodded, and the group immediately dispersed, almost running away. After they finally got out, Jeremy took a deep breath. When they reached the entrance, they saw Lynn. Jeremy hesitated for the longest time but chose to stay quiet in the end. “How did it go?” Lynn asked anxiously. To be frank, she was unwilling to watch her wretched cousin brother-in-law punished, so she chose to stay behind at the entrance. Jeremy shook his head and answered, “I
Leon suddenly started laughing. It was a burst of presumptuous and mocking laughter. “What did you just say? Four hundred thousand? Bro, there should be a limit to your act.” Leon continued to mock, “I think what you’re wearing isn’t even worth three hundred. Oh, right, and with that blind daughter of yours, you two wouldn’t even add up to four digits. Forget four hundred thousand, can you even pay up forty thousand?” It was Leon’s first time meeting such a hilarious person. The man was even a father to a child, what an idiot. He must have just been putting up a front to act cool in front of his kid. “Leon, what are you saying? You were at fault first. Why can’t you just apologize to the child?” Silvia sounded annoyed. She had never expected that Leon would hit such an adorable little girl. This man was too vile! Thankfully, she had not accepted his confession earlier. However, Silvia was worried about Philip because she knew of Leon’s background. The young man was from a rich fa
It was George Thomas’s number. Almost instantly, the call was answered, and from the other end came George’s voice, “Young Master, what are your instructions?” “Investigate Prime Harvest Group. I want them bankrupt in ten minutes!” said Philip faintly. “That’s a small matter,” George answered easily, but then he quickly said, “Young Master, this Prime Harvest Group seems to be doing well, so I’d suggest that you buy it instead. It’s not very expensive too. Their worth on the market now would be… three hundred million. You just have to spend three hundred million to buy them over.” George’s suggestion sounded really good. If he had to destroy a corporation, why not buy it over instead and own it? That way, no one would lose their jobs, and it would be good to keep the market stable. “Alright then, buy it over. Have Lewis Larson come to the dessert shop opposite of Millennium Amusement Park this instant,” said Philip calmly. “One other thing, I want you to send three hundred mi
Leon’s mind was now like a roller-coaster, in complete chaos. My name is Leon Larson, and I am now in a state of panic! There are thirty armored cash carriers outside the door, waiting in a line. Beside each car are four SWAT officers carrying loaded guns. They’re all wearing black battle uniforms, black helmets, and carrying black guns. Yes, it’s not the regular armored car escorts who carry rubber bullets. These are real bullets. Because the sum was too huge, the bank has contacted the SWAT team urgently, and they have sent more than a hundred SWAT officers over to escort the money. This was all done in less than ten minutes. Philip calmly looked at Leon whose forehead was now covered in sweat and said, “I called them here.” Boom! Leon felt his mind explode. His hands kept shaking. He was from a wealthy family and knew full well how terrifying a person is to send over so much cash in such a short time! His scalp felt prickly as he experienced despair for the first time. However
A father should be willing to risk it all for his child. In their words, if they had three hundred million, they would definitely smash the money, stack by stack at Leon until he apologized. Leon was utterly flustered as he struggled to get up. Philip had already ended the live stream. Theo clenched his fists tight and closed in, step by step. With a swift movement, he pushed Leon against the wall and growled, “Brat, I’d advise you to hurry outside and apologize to Mr. Clarke’s daughter, or else you won’t be able to see tomorrow’s sunlight.” Being disrespectful to Mr. Clarke’s daughter meant being disrespectful to his princess! That was right! In Theo’s eyes, Philip’s daughter was a little princess! Leon struggled as he started yelling, “How dare you! My father is Lewis Larson! So what if you have money? Can you just buy my company as you please? Dream on! If I say ‘no’, who would dare to sell it?!” Leon had thought it through. The man was only rich, but his father was an influ
Leon lifted his head to look at Philip with a bit of anger and apprehension. “Why wouldn’t we dare to? Since you’ve bought our company, this money belongs to us!” The boy was reluctant to give in after all. Philip smirked. Lewis turned around and gave his son another slap. “Shut up!” Leon was stunned. In all of his life, today was the first time his father had slapped him so many times. He was just about to retort, but Lewis bowed and said humbly, “If Young Master Clarke wants my company, then it will be a gift to Young Master Clarke. Of course, I won’t take the money.” Lewis was not an idiot. He knew that only this way, he and his son would be able to survive. Philip nodded and glanced at George. The latter had the armored cars driven majestically away from the door. Yes, just like that, in front of Leon’s eyes, the cars drove away, one by one. That was three hundred million, all of Larson’s family’s assets! “Dad, what are you doing? That’s the Larson family’s money!” Leon
“You must be referring to the lark people. What do you want with them? They're not to be trifled with. You’ll be in trouble if you mess with them.” Everyone was delighted to hear about the lark people. It was great that someone knew something. Adam was very excited to find a clue as soon as they arrived. He had thought it would take a lot of effort to find something, but reality proved otherwise. “The lark people can be regarded as the overlords here. You can find out about them easily. I'm just an ordinary old woman, so I can't tell you too much. You should approach other people if you want to find out more. Maybe you can find a storyteller. I’m sure they can tell you some very important information.” The old lady was clearly unwilling to disclose anything, so everyone was disappointed. In that case, they could not force her. “Thank you very much. At least you gave us an inkling about what to do. We wouldn’t know so many things if it weren't for you.” Adam thanked the old
“I heard that her family is quite complicated. They seem quite troublesome.” Hearing that, everyone wondered what Adam meant. It seemed that he would face problems in pursuing a relationship with this woman. Carlos looked at Adam awkwardly and sighed. “It doesn't matter. We don’t have to worry about that. Let's just take things one step at a time.” Rabbit calmly drifted around with Philip, feeling quite good. “What's there to worry about? I say the old monk has nothing better to do than worry about trivial matters. It’d be embarrassing if so many of us couldn’t bring a woman back.” Until now, Rabbit felt that the other party was just an ordinary woman, so he did not think that there was anything to worry about. They quickly joined the line to enter the city. To Philip's surprise, there was no entrance fee at all. Moreover, their appearance and attire looked no different from the others. Philip and his friends calmly entered the place, and Philip stood on guard. He had a
Philip felt helpless at the sight of this vast starry sky and suddenly felt that maybe coming here was not the right choice. They arrived without knowing anything about this place, so they might encounter various dangers. “I’m curious about the woman you've been looking for. She must be quite extraordinary,” Philip said curiously, baffled about this matter. Hearing that, Adam shook his head helplessly. He was really clueless about everything. “I only know that I can come here and find her with the key. I don’t even know where she is. We can only search aimlessly in this starry sky.” Philip was dumbfounded by Adam’s incompetence. “I thought we’d be teleported to her home or a fixed location, so I don’t know what’s the deal with this. I have a feeling that I’ve been tricked.” Adam sighed helplessly. “Let's just wander around. I’m sure we can find something somehow,” Carlos comforted Adam, but he was not optimistic about it either. He knew that they probably could not find the
Adam had to reevaluate Philip’s strength. He used to think that Philip was simply the best of his generation. Although powerful, he was not invincible. However, the ability to change certain orders and rules was not something that just anyone had. It would not be far-fetched to call Philip the chosen one favored by the heavens. Philip told Carlos to bury Bryce before forgetting about him. Carlos quickly handled his affairs, packed his bags, and got ready to set off with Philip. Adam also waited for Philip without much luggage on hand. Philip stuffed Rabbit into the Verge Tower space. He had to bring Rabbit along with him or the latter would be up to no good. “Rabbit, stay in Verge Tower and stop bothering me.” Rabbit was upset to hear that he had to stay in Verge Tower but still felt happy that Philip was willing to take him along. “Next, the two of you need to relax. I’ll wrap you with my energy. Don't try to resist or you’ll only end up hurting yourself,” Philip said.
“I have other important things to do. Don't worry. I’ll be back soon, so make sure you work hard during this time. I’ve given you all the pills you need. Whether you can make full use of them depends on you.” In Philip’s opinion, the Hexa Guild could not do anything anymore, so there was no worry about them. After much deliberation, Jamie nodded. Philip did not belong to his guild, so he could hardly stop Philip from leaving. Moreover, Philip’s pill supply was already a great help to them. It would be annoying if Jamie asked for more. “No problem. Where are you going next? Do you need my help? I’ll do my best to help you.” The Celestial Palace was powerful enough for Jamie to say such things. Philip shook his head. He would be traveling with Adam next, and his strength was incredible. It was best for them to leave together. “It’s okay. I have everything prepared. Just do your best in the competition and don’t allow the Hexa Guild to take the upper hand.” Now that the Cele
“He lost his family when their enemies sought revenge while he was very young, so he's quite pitiful in a way.” Philip was not concerned about it. The life story of a loser had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Bryce was clearly up to no good. Getting to know him was a waste of time. “I found all the information he researched. To be honest, I’d think highly of him if he weren't up to no good.” Rabbit waved his paw smugly. He had looked through Bryce’s things and knew exactly what he had researched. Philip looked at a bottle of potion and could tell everything at a glance. “He’s a genius, indeed, but there’s no saving someone with bad intentions.” Philip shook his head helplessly. Bryce could only blame his bad luck for encountering them today. Carlos quickly took care of Bryce. There was no point in keeping such an evil villain. There was no need to be charitable in this situation. Adam looked at the room and sighed helplessly at Bryce’s unfortunate end. Although he had
Philip was curious about this situation. Since he could not get any information from the stubborn hooded man, he would find out indirectly. “That’s enough. Take him away. He has no value to us anyway. It's better to send him away.,” Philip said with disdain and did not take him seriously at all. The hooded man was shocked to hear that Philip was sending him away. He was nervous and afraid that Philip would do something to him. Although he was selfish and unreasonable, he was also a coward and afraid of death. Everyone sighed helplessly at his mournful wails. Adam closed his eyes, unwilling to get involved. Seeing this, Philip believed that Adam was unwilling to pay attention to his nephew, but he was still curious. If they were closely related, why would this guy's family sever all ties with Adam? It was advantageous to be on good terms with Adam. Not only would they receive guidance on practice, but they could also listen to his lectures from time to time. For example,
Philip and the old monk greeted each other happily as if they were old friends. Carlos was surprised to see Philip on such good terms with the high and mighty old monk. This was something he had never even dared to dream about. It was unbelievable that he could sit and drink happily with the old monk one day. “Let me introduce my friends.” Philip calmly introduced everyone around him, ignoring Carlos’ anxiety. Carlos stood up when he saw the old monk. “Hello, my name is Carlos. I admire you very much. I never thought that I'd be able to meet you one day. It’s my honor.” Carlos was happy and excited to get more perks than the guild leader. The old monk was quite friendly. After greeting Carlos with a smile, he looked at Philip curiously, wondering what he was up to. “I want to find out if you know someone.” After saying this, Philip asked Carlos to bring the hooded man out. The guy was tied up tightly and looked pitiful. More importantly, his clothes had been stripped off,
The hooded man woke up very soon, and he could not believe that Philip caught him. “What's going on? How did you catch me? This is impossible.” He was very confident in himself and knew that no one could catch him so easily, but reality had just proven him wrong. He had no choice but to believe it. “What's impossible? You underestimate me too much!” Rabbit snapped furiously. “What’s your name?” Philip stared at the man curiously. He had a feeling that this person was the same as the old monk. “Rabbit, call the old monk over. I want to speak to him. He may not know you, so you need to tell him who you are.” After interrogating this man, Philip wanted to speak to the old monk and find out his opinion about this hooded man. Since the two gave him the same feeling, they had to be connected somehow. Rabbit hopped over to find the old monk. He knew that the old monk was the best referral for this matter because he was very powerful and knowledgeable. The old monk was resting
